Quantitative Estimation and Comparative Analysis of Polysaccharides and Proteins in Common Dietary Pulses

2025-09-05T07:17:07+00:00

Pulses are edible seeds from legume plants and are a rich source of polysaccharides and proteins. Estimating the polysaccharide and protein content in pulses provides valuable insights into their nutritional composition. Polysaccharides, primarily in the form of starch and dietary fiber, contribute to the energy content and functional properties of pulses. Proteins, as a major macronutrient in pulses, play a crucial role in human nutrition, particularly as a plant-based protein source.

In the present study, there are four main pulses has been selected for the estimation of polysaccharides and proteins such as Vigna mungo (Black gram), Pisum sativum (Green peas), Trigonella foenum graecum (Fenugreek), and Cicer arietinum (Bengal gram) using standardized methods. The dried pulse seeds were powdered and extracted with water to obtain gum.

Total polysaccharides were significantly higher in Trigonella foenum-graecum and Vigna mungo, while total protein content was highest in Trigonella foenum-graecum, followed by Cicer arietinum. In both analyses, Trigonella foenum-graecum showed the highest levels of estimated phytochemicals, indicating that it contains the highest amounts of bioactive primary metabolites (polysaccharides and proteins). This research report suggested that mung dal and chickpea may also offer significant health benefits. The study recommends including Trigonella foenum-graecum, followed by Vigna mungo and Cicer arietinum, in regular diet to obtain both medicinal and nutritional health benefits.

INDIAN KNOWLEDGE SYSTEM OF USING ILLICIUM VERUM.L WOUND HEALING IN DIABETIC FOOT ULCER – A TRADITIONAL APPROACH

2025-09-05T08:00:00+00:00

Since its beginning, Indian Traditional Medicine, the cornerstone of the world's ancient medical practice, has been vital to human health and well-being. Traditional medicine in India refers to the use of medicines that are believed to have Indian origins or that were imported to India and assimilated into Indian culture. Ayurveda, Siddha, Unani, Yoga, Naturopathy, and Homoeopathy are just a few examples of the country's recognized traditional medicine. The need for natural products and plant-based medications is rising globally these days. Herbal preparations can be used for extended periods of time due to their non-toxic nature, which also makes them potentially more effective than conventional medications. This study investigated the phytochemical, antioxidant, and antimicrobial effects of Illicium verum.L. Phytochemical analysis, total antioxidant capacity, DPPH radical scavenging effect, Nitric oxide scavenging, Hydrogen peroxide radical scavenging were studied by established methods. Antibacterial, antifungal effects were screened by disk diffusion respectively Significant (P <0.05) IC50 values compared to respective standards were recorded in DPPH radical scavenging (54.141µg/ml), Nitric oxide scavenging (93.542 µg/ml), Hydrogen peroxide radical scavenging (93.542 µg/ml) methods. In antibacterial screening, the extract showed significant (P <0.05) zone of inhibitions compared to positive controls Chloramphenicol against Gram Positive Enterococcus faecalis and Staphylococcus aureus and Gram negative Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. In antifungal assay, the greater zone of inhibition was obtained for growth of Candida albicans.

EFFECT OF INTEGRATED NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT ON PRODUCTIVITY OF GREEN GRAM (Vigna radiata)

2025-09-05T08:14:22+00:00

The present study is to evaluate the practice of Integrated Nutrient Management (INM) effect on growth and yield response of green gram and their effect on soil fertility. Field experiment was conducted using various INM treatments of combinations of organic and inorganic fertilizers and biofertilizers and recorded the observations on plant height, number of branches, leaf count, secondary root, leaf area and yield. The integrated treatments were satisfactory and provided positive response with respect to plant growth and productivity with the integrated application of partially reduced use of chemical fertilizers, vermicompost and biofertilizers. The study concluded that INM could be an efficacious practice for achieving promising yield of green gram.

ASSESSMENT OF NUTRITIONAL STATUS AND BEHAVIORAL CHARACTERISTICS OF ADHD CHILDREN (4-10 YEARS) IN SPECIAL SCHOOLS OF PUDUCHERRY

2025-09-05T08:19:12+00:00

ADHD is one of the most common childhood brain disorders and can continue through adolescence and adulthood. The objective is to study the causes, nutritional status and behavioural characteristics of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder children aged 4-10 years in special need schools of Puducherry. The special need schools and the subjects was selected using purposive sampling technique to collect details on pre diagnosed attention deficit hyperactivity disorder children and other learning-disabled children, as the study was exclusive. The structured questionnaire was formulated to collect the details pertaining to the study. Further by using Statistical Package of Social Science, the mean results were calculated. The results of the study reveal that were majority of 63 percent of children with ADHD belong to first ordinal position, a higher value of 61.9 percent of male children were pre diagnosed with ADHD compare to female children of 58.3 percent. The major number of children was identified with combined type of ADHD. The maternal life style of ADHD children’s mother was found to be 70.4 percent were leading sedentary life style. The consanguineous marriage was highly prevalent in parents of ADHD children. The energy and calcium intake is found to be deficit and fat content was excess in all three-age group. Eighty-three-point three percent of children’s dietary pattern was non vegetarian. The intake of fruits and vegetables was identified with less frequency of consumption which mainly contains all nutrients for brain development. The processed and miscellaneous food consumption frequency was found to be higher 79.6 and 59.3 percent respectively. The awareness of sugar free, casein free, Feingold diet and gluten free diet along with food exchange list were provided for parents through awareness program. Which indicates to avoid artificial or processed foods and additives and besides gluten free diet also plays major role of ADHD children behaviour. Thus, the change in diet pattern can help children with ADHD. Future research in supplementation of foods can majorly help the community to manage ADHD children.

PREPARATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF CHITOSAN BASED SILVER-OXIDE NANOPARTICLES

2025-09-12T04:31:35+00:00

Silver oxide nanoparticles (AgO NPs) have attracted significant interest due to their remarkable physicochemical properties, antimicrobial activity, and biocompatibility, making them ideal candidates for a variety of industrial, environmental, and biomedical applications. However, their practical utilization requires stabilization and biocompatibility, which can be achieved by integrating them with natural biopolymers like chitosan. Chitosan, a biodegradable and non-toxic polysaccharide, serves as an effective stabilizer and functionalizing agent, preventing nanoparticle aggregation and enhancing their biological activity. The nanocomposites were synthesized through an eco-friendly approach, with chitosan acting as both a reducing and capping agent. Characterization techniques, including UV, XRD, SEM with EDX, were employed to confirm the formation, size, and dispersion of the silver oxide nanoparticles. In conclusion, chitosan-based silver oxide nanoparticles represent versatile, eco-friendly materials with broad potential for applications. Further research is needed to optimize synthesis methods and enhance nanoparticle stability.
